Since both the K3 and KX3 produce SSB purely by DSP - microphone
audio is digitized to I/Q streams, the streams processed numerically,
translated to an RF frequency and the I/Q streams converted back to
analog, the algorithms of CESSB should be applicable to both K3 and
KX3.

Implementing them (adding them to the DSP codes for voice modes while
maintaining traditional modulation algorithms for data modes) is a
question for Lyle and Wayne.
